The International Workshop on Prediction and Perception of Natural Disasters will take place in Perugia, Italy, on November 1990. This workshop is sponsored also by the National Research Council of Italy and the United Nations Secretariat for the International Decade for Natural Disasters Reduction. The purpose of the meeting is to determine the areas of research of common interest to the United States and other nations suffering from the consequences of persistent natural disasters, in the field of prediction and in the area of public perception. Physical scientists, engineers and social scientists from several countries will discuss the state-of-the-art of methodologies for the prediction of various natural hazards and for the identification and evaluation of factors influencing the perception of existing capabilities. Determining which are the gaps in knowledge and the needed research in these fields will improve our capabilities for warning and protecting populations at risk within diverse cultural contexts.

自然灾害预测和认识国际讲习班将于1990年11月在意大利佩鲁贾举行。该讲习班也由意大利国家研究理事会和联合国国际减少自然灾害十年秘书处主办。会议的目的是确定美国和遭受持续自然灾害后果的其他国家共同感兴趣的研究领域，在预测领域和公众感知领域。物理学家，来自几个国家的工程师和社会科学家将讨论各种自然灾害的预测方法的最新水平，以及识别和对影响现有能力感知的因素进行评估。确定这些领域的知识差距和需要的研究将提高我们在不同文化背景下警告和保护处于危险中的人口的能力。
